Daocheng Yading — Ultra-high-altitude airport basics (identity, codes, and first-timer arrival tips)
Lining up a western China itinerary and considering a hop into Daocheng Yading to cut overland time. I’m after a crisp, shareable reference that confirms the airport’s official identity, the code you’ll encounter across booking/ops tools, and a bite-size arrival overview—enough to plan transfers and set expectations for altitude, weather delays, and “first hour on the ground” logistics. One definitive link I can drop into the planning doc would keep travelers and coordinators synced.
